Bismuth and Ytterbium Oxide Compounds: Preparation and Thermodynamics
摘要
Abstract
The compound Bi1.3Yb0.7O3 was prepared by solid-phase reactions. The compound had a cubic structure, space group Fm3m, with the unit cell parameter a = 0.54202 nm. The solution enthalpy of Bi1.3Yb0.7O3 as measured by solution calorimetry in 2 M HCl was ΔsolH 0 = −227.8 ± 6.3 kJ/mol. The measured enthalpy of solution was used to calculate the standard enthalpy of Bi1.3Yb0.7O3 formation as ΔfH 0 = −996.0 ± 7.9 kJ/mol. The lattice enthalpy for Bi1.3Yb0.7O3 was calculated using the Born–Haber cycle as ΔlatH 0 = −13278 kJ/mol.
